Kitchenette

Having a stovetop, space for a full refrigerator, sink, and cabinets will give you the personal necessity you need to live independently. It takes an experienced contractor to build the perfect kitchenette that will give you optimal space and durability. 

 

Full Bathroom 

Secondly, a bathroom is a must, not a half bathroom a full one. The ultimate ADU living space emulates a regular just at a smaller scale. You can have a full bathroom with a sink, toilet, and shower. A perfectly designed bathroom, with give you enough space to move about in your bathroom and store your personal items. 

 

Bedroom Space

It may come as a surprise but a bedroom may not be the most prominent feature of an ADU, but it would be best.
